Plus no deploying any projects with 4.2 rc3

I have a mystery to solve.
I have just got my first plus and flashed it to 4.2 rc3 and since then it has refused to deploy any projects at all in either vb or c#.
So as a little experiment I re-flashed it with the 4.2 rc3 for non plus Netduinos. Now it will allow me to deploy projects in both vb and c#.
Just to be sure I was not going completely crazy I then flashed the 4.2 rc3 for plus back onto it and once again it refused to deploy any projects at all.
This is driving me crazy, can someone point me to the 4.1 release firmware so I can try rolling it back to see what happens please.
Cheers Pete.

All the Netduino source is open source. You're welcome to post, redistribute, share, etc.Hi Bainesbunch,
I still have the original files for MF4.2 RC1, NetduinoPlusFirmware_v4.2.0.0_RC1.zip and SDK.zip. They are dated 08/07/2011 in the zip files. I think Chris Walker would need to give permission for me to upload them or perhaps he could restore them to the site. I have re-flashed several times with these files with no problems.

This morning I woke up all full of hope for my plight.
I flashed the 4.1 firmware and ... yes my Netduino will now allow me to deploy again.
So the villain looks like being 4.2 rc4 for the plus.
Does anyone else have the same problem.
For all the test I used the same Hardware (Netduino Plus rev. b board) re-flashing the boot loader and the firmware each time ....
- 4.2 rc4 Plus firmware will not allow deployment of applications.
- 4.2 rc4 Non Plus firmware will allow deployment of applications.
- 4.1 Plus firmware will allow deployment of applications.
Edit : Thanks to Baxter i also tried it with the 4.2 rc1. This brought me more success. This time I was able to deploy a vb application BUT the device would just sit there saying rebooting. I have to unplug and reconnect the device to emulate a re-boot before it will continue EVERY time. Coincidently the string to double problem (in another thread I have started) is also not present in the rc1.
Cheers Pete.

Pete,
I think you need both the RC1 firmware and the MF4.2 RC1 SDK to get going smoothly. As I noted in my post I could not upload the SDK because of its size. I searched on CodePlex, but it does not seem to be available. It is very strange that the various release candidates are not archived somewhere in case someone wants to revert. If you wish to PM me, I can try to send it to you via email.

Hi Baxter,
I tried to send you a PM, but it is telling me you can't use it .. Very odd ..
You can sent it to me on Skype if you have it. My Skype address id LPDR.Miers. It is very fast as it is P2P. I am online 24/7 just ask to be a contact i will add you then you can send it through by dragging and dropping it into the typing window.
Chris, if you are still following this thread, can you say when we are going to be seeing the next release candidate and will it also have the string to double conversion and do you intend to do a Release candidate with the onewire bit in soon ?
Cheers Pete.

Pete,
My email address was hidden. I unchecked it so try again if you still want the SDK.

Well Pete,
I guess I don't know how private email works on the forum. I am reluctant to openly post my email address for fear of it getting hijacked.
Baxter
OK no worries, I am sure it would only serve to further cloud the situation anyway
Cheers Pete

We can build a special OneWire version of the firmware once the .NET MF 4.2 firmware is out of beta. The next beta (release candidate) is coming soon, but I won't have an exact day until it's posted.Chris, if you are still following this thread, can you say when we are going to be seeing the next release candidate and will it also have the string to double conversion and do you intend to do a Release candidate with the onewire bit in soon ?
I understand the enthusiasm around the new features in .NET MF 4.2, and am looking forward to getting it out of beta.
